For Investors

For investors the Yorkshire Forward Access to Finance for Healthcare Technology Companies (YFAFHT) programme can generate a strong deal flow of companies.

If you are interested in making investments between £50k and £5m in a high-growth Yorkshire-Humberside based company YFAFHT can provide a pipeline of attractive prospective investments.

YFAFHT's structured support is focussed on preparing companies for equity investment so that they understand their business from an investor's perspective. YFAFHT companies graduate from the programme with the key elements in place to help investors easily make an investment decision, including:

• a clear understanding of how much funding is required;
• a clear understanding of how the funding will be used;
• an understanding of how to value a company, and what equity investors will be looking for in return for an investment;
• an understanding of the exit options that will be available;
• what their team needs to look like; and
• the unique market opportunity.

All of the above is encapsulated in a two-page opportunity note that can be quickly read and easily interpreted.

Through the YFAFHT workshops we offer investors early access to an investment pipeline followed by structured engagements designed to qualify the proposition and address potential risks.
